I have an 08 350z with STOCK intake & STOCK exhaust with test pipes. My car has only 280's H.P. yet I hold the 07/08 HR 350z 1/4 mile record at 12.504@110mph. I've done many 12.5's/12.6's at Atco & Raceway Park N.J. I do use slicks, but have done many 12.7's/12.8's without them in summer weather. I also hold the 60' record at 1.69. The main reason for my times has to be my driving. I am bragging BUT there is no other way to say it. I don't shift hard but I can shift faster than you can blink your eyes. There is an older vidoe of me driving with a camera on my helmet, and the other of my tach & shifting. It was not of my fast times but it's worth seeing. Just search andre12031948 & you can check them out.

NO LONGER ON JUST SEARCH - It is however on you tube search - "shifting like Vin Diesel"

Well ok, just don't make it a habit Long ago when I was young, I had sex 6 times in one night. Could that also be a record? Please don't ask if I was QUICK then too.

Lies. I actually went on YouTube and searched for it and I ended up watching "Get Abs Like Vin Diesel." I'm starting the program tomorrow.
